4 1.07 Project Conditions A. Maintain the ambient room and the floor temperatures at 60 degrees Fahreheit, or above, for a period extending from 72 hours before, during and after floor installation. Concrete to receive surfacing shall have cured for at least 28 days and shall have been free of water for at least 7 days. 3 of 6 B. Dew Point: Substrate temperature must be minimum of 5 degrees above dew point prior to, during or up to 24 hours after application of flooring system. C. Illumination: Apply flooring system only where a minimum of 30 footcandles exist when measured 3 feet from surface. D. Advise other trades of fixtures and fittings not to be installed until flooring is cured and protected Protection A. Protect adjacent surfaces not scheduled to receive the flooring by masking, or by other means, to maintain these surfaces free of the flooring material. B. Provide adequate ventilation and fire protection at all mixing and placing operations. Prohibit smoking or use of spark or flame producing devices within 50 feet of any mixing or placing operation. C. Provide polyethylene or rubber gloves or protective creams for all workmen engaged in applying products containing epoxy. Part 2 Products 2.01 Materials A. System Overview 1. The coating system shall be NeverStrip Metallic Coating System using NeverStrip Concrete Primer 100, NeverStrip Metallic Epoxy 100 Clear 100% Solids Epoxy Bodycoat, and NeverStrip High Solids Clear Urethane Topcoat. This system shall be applied over a clean, vacuum blasted substrate. 2. Prior to system application, all control joints and cracks are to be treated with semi-rigid epoxy joint filler and rigid epoxy crack filler respectively as described in the execution section. 3. The finished floor system shall be a minimum mils in thickness, dense, nonporous and have a gloss finish with optional light non-skid texture matching approved sample. B. The rigid epoxy to be used for crack treatment shall be approved by Manufacturer. The semi-rigid epoxy to be used for control joint filler shall be approved by Manufacturer.

5 Part 3 Execution 3.01 Preparation A. Obtain Architect s approval of mock-up before installing flooring; see QUALITY ASSURANCE in PART 1. 4 of 6 B. Preparation of Surface: 1. Inspect surfaces to receive flooring and verify that condition is smooth and free from conditions that will adversely affect execution, permanence, or quality of work. a. Remove all projections, all debris detrimental to flooring system, and dirt, oil contaminates, grease, and surface coatings affecting bond. 2. Notify Architect in writing prior to commencing work of any conditions deemed unsatisfactory for the installation; installation of flooring materials is understood as acceptance of the substrate as satisfactory. 3. Concrete: The General Contractor shall be responsible for hiring an independent testing service to test for moisture content and moisture vapor emission rate; install no flooring over concrete until the concrete has been cured and is sufficiently dry to achieve permanent bond with flooring as determined by material manufacturer s recommended bond and moisture tests. a. Effectively remove concrete laitance by steel shot blasting or other method approved by flooring manufacturer and create a minimum CSP-3 surface profile. b. Concrete slab shall have an efficient puncture-resistant reinforced moisture vapor barrier 10 mils thick minimum directly under the concrete slab (for slab on grade). Do not use vapor barrier manufactured with re cycled material. Testing must be done to verify that the moisture vapor emission rate of the slab does not exceed that as recommended by the manufacturer at time of installation of the flooring or at any future date. Moisture vapor emission and moisture content testing must conform with the requirements of ASTM F (Calcium Chloride Test) and ASTM F (Relative Humidity Probe Test). If any test result shows excessive levels of moisture content or vapor emission rate, apply manufacturer s recommended moisture vapor emission control material based upon the highest reading. C. Cracks greater than 1/16 and non-expansion joints shall be routed and filled with Manufacturer approved Crack Filler and Epoxy Joint Filler, respectively. Consult with NeverStrip on use of rigid vs. semi-rigid joint filler material if non-expansion joints are to be covered by the NeverStrip Metallic Coating System.

6 3.02 Application A. General Apply each component of the NeverStrip Metallic Coating System in compliance with manufacturer s installation instructions including mixing and application methods, recoat windows, cure times and environmental restrictions. The system is to be applied directly over all non-expansion joints and cracks that have been treated as previously described. Material applied over expansion or control joint material is subject to cracking due to movement in the joint. 5 of 6 B. Cracks and Non-Expansion Joints 1. Cracks less than 1/16 wide after surface preparation shall be filled with neat, rigid NeverStrip Concrete Primer 100 or other resin approved by Manufacturer, mixed and applied as recommended by the manufacturer s printed instructions. All treated cracks are to be sanded prior to applying primer. Non-Expansion Joints shall be routed and filled with semi-rigid epoxy or rigid epoxy resin, consult with Manufacturer for recommendation. 2. Those cracks larger than 1/16 wide shall be routed and filled with rigid epoxy approved by Manufacturer, mixed and applied as recommended by the Manufacturer s printed instructions. C. Epoxy Primer Application 1. Apply Concrete Primer 100 by squeegee and back roll at the rate of 250 sq ft per gallon to thoroughly wet surface, but taking care not to pond the material. If using alternate primer or moisture vapor control system approved by Manufacturer, follow appropriate mixing and application instructions. 2. Follow manufacturer s instructions for mixing and application techniques. D. Metallic Body Coat Application 1. Apply 2 coats of NeverStrip Epoxy 100 Clear with metallic pigment as a bodycoat at a minimum total thickness of mils per coat. Coverage of 100 square feet per gallon is required for 100% solids epoxy to achieve 16 mils thickness. Follow instructions for curing and recoat times. 2. Follow manufacturer s instructions for mixing and application techniques.

7 E Urethane Top Coat Application 1. Apply clear aliphatic urethane top coat NeverStrip High Solids Urethane (or approved substitute) to yield desired finish texture. Approximate coverage should be square feet per gallon to yield 3 dry mils with ¼ nap woven roller cover. Add non-skid NeverStrip Resin Grip (fine grade) to urethane coating application to provide required textured finish, if specified. Cure to manufacturer s recommendations. 6 of 6 2. Follow manufacturer s instructions for mixing and application techniques. F. Obtain architect/engineer s approval of the system just after completion of the final coat, prior to completion of curing Curing and Protection A. Cure NeverStrip Metallic Coating System materials in compliance with manufacturer s directions, taking care to prevent contamination during stages of the application and prior to completion of the curing process. B. Apply temporary protection until floor is fully cured. The General Contractor shall protect the finished floor from the time that the sub-contractor completes the work For Hazardous Materials (or Dangerous Goods) Incident: Spill, Leak, Fire, Exposure, or Accident Call CHEMTREC, Day or Night USA and Canada: Made in U.S.A./Fabriqué aux É.-U NeverStrip Floor Coatings
